Sure enough, that's Bozo on a dispenser; good catch. I do stand corrected. Though I have to say that one is one scary Pez! And for $150 - yikes! That one won't be joining my collection any time soon... :)

Hi Kevin,
I wanted to follow up with information you asked about regarding the copyright violation notice I listed on the Blue Moon beer article. I've put up exact info on the plagiarizations there on its talk page. I would recommend someone from the beer project deletes most of the article and re-write it from a clean slate, because it probably can be done.

I'm almost certain that i saw it on a reputible site. i don't have it handy, but i'll see if i can't find it soon and i'll give you the link. §Dr. Benjamin
Thanks for fixin my page and telling me how to keep my text on the page =) EditingFrenzy 00:47, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi. Please don't let User:Mikebe's incivility and edit warring prevent you from contributing to the beer articles. — goethean ॐ 19:04, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Hi,
I for one value your contributions to the beer project, so I hope you will decide to continue with it, despite the frustrations of this sort of conflict. I understand your position and I happen to agree with the broad gist of what should find its way into a beer article. While the debate does seemed to have reached an impasse (well, several), I think it should be possible to resolve, and I hope you'll stick around either to help resolve it or once an acceptable direction has been arrived at. I've added a few more related thoughts on the beer project talk page -- let me know if there's any service that would be useful in helping to resolve this. --Daniel11 09:17, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
I first wanted to tell you that I am very happy with your recent edits and that we seem to be quite close in seeing how the beer articles should be written. Perhaps when you have the time, you might start translating the Beer Style article into English (I would do it myself, but I am not so familiar with beer styles). I find it sad that it is now written only for brewers and that regular users of Wikipedia cannot use it.
Now, I hope you won't be too upset, but I am going to change some of your changes in the Tripel article. It is not true that some of the Trappist breweries have recently started brewing beers stronger than tripels -- Westvleteren introduced their "12" shortly before World War II and Rochefort introduced theirs in 1950. Although the trappist breweries communicate and cooperate with each other, they do not all make the same beers. This is another reason why tripel is not a style, but a naming convention.
I hope that we will continue to work toward the same goal here. Mikebe 15:37, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
OK, please accept my apology. You are correct that I should have clarified rather than removed. Is that you who added the taste description? I find it quite strange. Mikebe 20:12, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello, Beakerboy;
I notice that you reverted the addition of a beer style infobox on the Witbier article with the edit summary "Removed wikibox per prior discussion". Sorry for being a bit dense here, but I've searched through your contribution history, the WikiProject Beer pages, and the talk page of the article, and the closest thing I can locate was a comment you posted on April 27 to the article talk page that you felt that the content was unnecessary and unreliable. I'm not sure that was what you were referring to, since it wasn't really a discussion if nobody responded to it, and don't want to get into a long-winded post to you if it just re-hashes old arguments from an old discussion that took place elsewhere. So before I address the specific points you've raised and address why I feel that your reversion was inappropriate, I wanted to inquire whether there was a discussion elsewhere that I've missed? A link would be helpful.
Looking forward to hearing from you, -- Neil916 (Talk) 06:17, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
Hi,
I don't know if you've been following the discussion on the Quadrupel talk page, but it has become quite clear to me that even in the US it is no longer considered a beer style. The BJCP has apparently dropped it and the people who do the Great American Beer Festival also do not list it. Only Beeradvocate seems to clearly think it is a style, however, some BA members don't agree: http://beeradvocate.com/forum/read/1054087
Anyhow, I am going to nominate the article for deletion since no organisation even in the US (other than BA) calls it a style. Is this something you would agree with or do you have other information that I should know about? If you agree, would you be kind enough to join in the delete vote when the time comes? I hope so.
BTW, I noticed from a conversation on this page that you had some involvement with the article about Blue Moon. I had a chance to taste it a few years ago, so I was very surprised to see the article say: "Blue Moon is a somewhat typical example of a Belgian white ale." Has it really improved so much in the last few years? The sample I tasted several years ago was actually quite awful.
Now, I've got one complaint: you said that you were going going to post the interview with the brewer from Duvel (is that really Ommegang?) on the Tripel talk page, but I can't find it. I was really looking forward to reading it after some of the things you quoted from him. Well, if you have a chance (and still have access to it), I'd really appreciate if you'd post it.
Again, thanks. Mikebe 15:16, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
In reply to your question -- The information should be verifiable against published sources. See Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:No_original_research. Has this been published somewhere publicly? In PCN perhaps? A message board or mailing list post from David would be better than nothing. - PxT 20:31, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
A discussion has been opened on changes that have been made to the existing Beer category system. The changes reverse the decision made by the Project in April 2006. The changes were based on agreement by only two people, and by a discussion that took place outside the Beer Project. There may be some merit in the changes, and to prevent future conflict it is important that there is some discussion of the matter. If you're interested, please see Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Beer#Brewery_cats. SilkTork *YES! 14:06, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
You seem interested in PEZ. Are you a collector? Thank you for reverting my edit to the PEZ article. As soon as I saw the coat of arms, I was immediately struck with the idea "those are just like PEZ dispensers!" The fact that PEZ was invented in Austria makes it even funnier. JIP | Talk 20:14, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
It's nice to see you contributing again on the beer articles. Unfortunately, there are not many regular contributors left and some that are insist on putting in false information from home-brewing guides and such. It is still a struggle to try to keep the European beer acticles accurate! BTW, there's a discussion on the beer-style talk page you might take part in (sort of a poll on sources).
I don't know if you saw it, but I responded to a comment you made (I think on the barley-wine article) about how many examples is enough. Basically, I have concluded that the examples are more trouble than they are worth -- people are constantly adding their local brewery or their own brewery and at the same time, the example beers are mostly only available locally (with some exceptions, of course).
I hope all is going well with you otherwise and look forward to seeing you around on the beer articles again! Mikebe (talk) 14:56, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.
If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:44, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

No I do not know who that user is. I am a Dutchman and know of course much about European beers. In your message, you wrote "please keep an open mind on the internationalization of beer."
